Mississauga native Dillon Brooks signs with Memphis Grizzlies

Mississauga native Dillon Books has signed a contract to play for the Memphis Grizzlies. Brooks was drafted by the Houston Rockets in the second round of the NBA draft with the 45th overall pick and was then immediately traded to Memphis.

Brooks was named Pac-12 Conference Player of the Year edging out UCLA freshman Lonzo Ball for the honour.

Brooks led the Oregon Ducks to an appearance in the Final Four before losing to the eventual champs North Carolina Tar Heels. The Final Four run in 2017 was preceded by an appearance in the Elite 8 back in 2016.
